Veggie, Bean & Barley Soup

March 2, 2012

Or soup? Or is it stew? Whatever, I don’t know and I don’t care because it’s really good and I love making it. This is more or less the same as my other Bean & Barley Soup posted quite some time ago, but this time I modified by doing the following:

Adding broccoli

Adding Chickpeas

Using black beans instead of kidney beans

Leaving out the spinach

Simone navigated around most of the veggies and had the broth, beans, barley, and even some carrot (hallelujah). This thickens up nicely for leftovers the next day which is why I say it’s a stew instead of a soup. You can thin it out by adding a bit of broth to it.
